The unnecessary roughness on Roquon (when he jumped off-sides and ran into Trey) was kind of weak.
The flag against BAL after the altercation between Travis and Queen or whoever was pretty weak for a playoff game.
And KC committed DPI at least twice that wasn't called.
And there were probably a couple more, but I haven't rewatched the game and I missed part of the first quarter.
But again, the refs this season have been terrible, so it's not like any of this was a surprise.

Dude - that was textbook unnecessary roughness.
Because everyone knew he was jumping on purpose - a 1st down effectively ends the game and 5 yards for an offsides gives them what they wanted. All he had to do was jump early and pat Smith on the shoulders. Instead he ran through the guy.
That was as obvious as an unnecessary roughness penalty gets. Dude thought "hey, I'm gonna make them earn this free 5 yards and no harm done because we wanted them at 1st and 10 anyway..."
It was a dirty bullshit move. There was nothing at all weak about that call in the context of the play. If that's a legit penalty where he just jumped early - maybe not. But that was clearly intentional and that's what that penalty exists to prevent.
